*Sidewinder/ATOLL missile post*
In real life 1 Sidewinder/ATOLL will kill any jet with a direct hit(like ingame) but I thought about it, I would LOVE for the heatseeking missiles to kill in 1 hit(my kill score would be way better) But since almost nobody else(especially transport pilots) wouldn't go for a 1 shot 1 kill idea, how about this:
1 AMRAAM shot=1 kill(as is)
but
1 heatseeking missile= ~1 kill
Instead of just 2 heatseekers making a kill, 1 heatseeker will kill a jet(slowly) if it does not recieve repairs an an alloted time. Finishing a dogfight and landing taken into account, perhaps about 3-5 minutes? Having the missile able to kill another jet or helicopter would make it a better and more realistic missile, rathar than just a missile that would make the REAL thing look a MOAB fired from a jet. While it is not overpowered, considering it wouldn't be fair to a CAS jet and especially not a Helo full of people for a jet to come out of the bue and fire a missile with little warning. This would not let the missile be too powerful, yet would make it more realistic and a bit more fun to have in an aresonal.

Re: 1 shot, slow kill
2 HS missiles is a bit too much to be the only thing bigger than a Cannon but smaller than an AMRAAM that can kill another jet. Making a HS able to kill an aircraft with 1 shot would be awesome, but nobody wants a 1 shot 1 kill. Making it slowly take away the health of the aircraft would be perfect.

Re: 1 shot, slow kill
I love this idea, should be like that for any aircraft. A lot of times I see my self just blown up, just like that in helicopters and jets. No time to bail out, or any "epic" go down.

Re: 1 shot, slow kill
Thanks guys, I had a feeling that this would be met with some resistence or people who wouldn't even consider that this is anywhere near a good idea.
Also, good point, this should eb inplimented with all HS missiles, that way it would be better to have all missiles(other than AMRAAMS and AT rocket/missiles) be able to kill any aircraft in 3-5 minutes. That way the aircraft is more likley to seek repairs rather than just: oh its okay, 1 missile wouldn't hurt me that bad. Instead 1 missile can kill you slowly...
